Our cruise was at night and with dinner included. The cruise was very nice - I wss worried I would get seasick but the boat was steady enough. I only wish there was some information or a self guide about the places that we could see outside the window. The dinner was good with a couple of chices for the main course, although, none vegetarian ones. The one thing that was not quite okay wss the price of the beverage - a glass of wine cost 500 TRy!!! And intially we weren't advised of those. And when we asked for the bill we were told it was 400 TRY, so we had to bargain for that price to be applied - which is still a lot!! Everything else, including the program, was very nice and enjoyable!

Good atmosphere, apart from the alcohol the drinks are long overdue. They ask you to arrive 15 minutes early and leave the dock one hour after the start of activities. If the appetizer was already on the tables, the main course was a long time coming. This is a classic dinner (starter, main course, dessert), not a four-course tasting.

This combo ticket allows you to experience Istanbul’s historical beauty from the Galata Tower and on a Bosphorus dinner cruise with significant savings and convenience.

Galata Tower – Istanbul’s medieval sentinel

Built by the Genoese in the 14th century, the Galata Tower has commanded the city skyline for over 600 years. It was Istanbul’s tallest building from 1348 until 1749 and has served many roles over the centuries, including as a watchtower, a prison, an astronomical observatory, and a lighthouse. Take the express elevator to its lookout platform to capture panoramic views of historic monuments and locations like the Topkapı Palace, Hagia Sophia, the Golden Horn, the Bosphorus Strait, and more. The optional audio guide app provides a fascinating account of the tower’s rich history.

Bosphorus Dinner Cruise – An evening of scenic views and Turkish culture

After exploring the Galata Tower, board a boat for a memorable 3-hour dinner cruise on the Bosphorus Strait. Witness the majestic beauty of Istanbul’s illuminated waterfront landmarks like the Dolmabahçe Palace, the Galata Tower, and the Bosphorus Bridge from the comfort of your VIP table. As you cruise, enjoy a delicious 4-course Turkish meal with dishes like fava beans mezze with strawberries, a cheese platter, spring rolls, barbequed meat and fish, and vegetarian pasta. Your dinner is accompanied by live entertainment featuring traditional music and dances from different regions of Turkey. The cruise includes unlimited soft drinks and free Wi-Fi on board.
